Fiona Fraser
- Managing Director
Fiona joined Burns Graphics in 1983 (wow, 24 years ago
and looking so young!), becoming Managing Director in
2000. She handles the strategy and production of projects,
and enjoys the challenge of 'impossible' deadlines -
to her, nothing is impossible.
Outside of work, looking after friend's dogs was a good excuse to take long
walks in the Staffordshire/Derbyshire countryside, and find a fine hostelry serving
traditional ales. Since becoming the proud 'mother' to young Fergus, the
walks have become more frequent and Fiona's knowledge of local footpaths, history,
nature and public houses is almost to mastermind level.

Maggie
Lucas - Sales Director
Having worked in graphic design, marketing and print
for over 20 years, Maggie prides herself on her level
of customer service. She enjoys talking to clients,
researching their company and market place - and delivering
a project that will be successful.
When not working, you will find Maggie listening to
music, watching football (not just watching, actually
a bit of a fanatic being a Season Ticket holder at
Liverpool!) and socialising, with friends - yes you
guessed it, translates into whiling away a happy hour
or two at the local pub.
Happily married to lovely Phil, Maggie's love of animals
is clear in that four cats share their home, one of
which was a runt of a litter but Maggie simply couldn't
resist.

One of Fergus’s duties is as office shredder, you often see him run past you with a piece of paper or envelope he shouldn’t have and shred it!
